All the Money in the World, Christopher Plummer emerge victorious post-Spacey

In early November, director Ridley Scott and movie studio Sony made the unprecedented decision to remove Spacey from the film about the kidnapping of 16-year-old John Paul Getty III, bringing in Plummer to reshoot his parts as J. Paul Getty.

The gamble paid off, with three Globes nominations, including best supporting actor for Plummer and director for Scott.

Michelle Williams, who plays Getty's daughter-in-law, and returned for reshoots after Plummer's hiring, also scored a nomination for actress in a drama.

House of Cards, Transparent snubbed

Spacey's fallout also extended into the television categories. House of Cards, the actor's former Netflix drama that previously was nominated for eight Golden Globes, failed to earn a single nomination this year for its fifth season, which premiered in May.

Though the show has lost much of its buzz over the last few seasons, Spacey and his former co-star Robin Wright won Globes for their starring roles on the show, Wright in 2014 and Spacey in 2015.

Netflix recently announced that Spacey's character Frank Underwood will not be appearing in the sixth and last season of House of Cards, set to premiere in 2018, which will instead focus on Wright's Claire Underwood.

Transparent has similarly lost steam in recent years, but has been nominated seven times previously, and won the Globe for best musical or comedy series in 2015, with Tambor taking home the prize that year for best musical or comedic actor.

The show's future remains in doubt following Tambor's statement that he doesn't know how he can return to the show, after several women, including Transparent actress Trace Lysette, accused the actor of inappropriate behavior.

Three Billboards cleans up

Starring Frances McDormand as a mother seeking justice for her daughter's rape, Three Billboards Outside Ebbing, Missourihas been praised for its cultural prescience in the wake of the Harvey Weinstein scandal.

The Hollywood Foreign Press Association seemed to agree on Monday, awarding the film six nominations, including best drama and dramatic actress for McDormand.

Pamela Adlon earns post-Louis C.K. nomination for Better Things

The comedian earned a Globes Globes nod for actress in a comedy for FX's Better Things, a favorite among critics that has nevertheless been caught up in the misconduct scandal surrounding the show's co-creator Louis C.K.

C.K. either wrote or co-wrote every episode of the show's two-year run.

While Adlon earned an acting nod, the show didn't receive any additional nominations.

TV's stories of strong women rewarded

Especially in the television categories, the HFPA seemed aware of the cultural conversation happening around sexual harassment, honoring an array of female-led stories, particularly involving sexual violence.

Sexual violence is central to The Handmaid's Tale, Hulu's dystopian Margaret Atwood adaptation that won the best drama Emmy this year, which also earned Globes nominations including best drama and dramatic actress for Elisabeth Moss.

Other nominees including Alison Brie for Glow, Maggie Gyllenhaal for The Deuce and Rachel Brosnahan for The Marvelous Mrs. Maisel, who alldepict female characters grappling with, and often overcoming, various constraints of the patriarchy of their respective eras, from Brosnahan's 1950s housewife and Gyllenhaal's 1970s independent-woman prostitute to Brie's 1980s amateur wrestler.
